Oh, carol, don't let him
Steal your heart away
I'm gonna learn to dance

If it takes me all night and day

Climb into my machine

So we can cruise on out
I know a swinging little joint
Where we can jump and shout


It's not too far
Back off the highway

Not so long a ride
You park your car
Out in the open

You can walk inside

A little cutie takes your hat

And you can thank her, maam
Every time you make the scene
You find the joint is jammed


Oh, carol, don't let him
Steal your heart away

I'm gonna learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day


And if you wanna hear some music
Like the boys are playing
Hold tight, pat your foot

Don't let em carry it away

Don't let the heat overcome you

When they play so loud
Oh, don't the music intrigue you
When they get a crowd


If you can't dance
I know you wish you could

I got my eyes on you, baby
Cause you dance so good


Oh, carol, don't let him
Steal your heart away
I'm gonna learn to dance

If it takes me all night and day

Don't let him steal your heart away

I've got to learn to dance
If it takes you all night and day
